Amen. When he told Cersei that he was going to tell Robert about everything, I wanted to slap him.

P.s. Y'all give me life with these discussions lol LOVE IT

Agreed, but look how easy it was to change his mind. I would hate to see Littlefinger try to puppet master that one Not that I think that will happen lol I'm just feeling like Aegon is driven more by the thought of immediate gratification rather than taking the time to look at the bigger picture. I also feel that if Dany is unwilling to marry him, he will be like "well, I gave you a chance. I'm taking it anyways". I could be wrong. Just a feeling.

I agree. I feel like if he wasn't Tywins son, we would have found out about it before Tyrion climbed up the ladder and finished it for good you know?

That's true. Well damn. I always wondered if his mismatched eyes was a clue to this theory. All the time it is said that Tyrion "fixed them with a stare from his mismatched eyes" because he knows it makes them uncomfortable. One green eye and one black. While I am not sure what kind of clue this provides, maybe its something. Or I could just be really desperate for the new book and I'm grasping at straws.

I can see that. I'm thinking his impatience will be his undoing in the end. How quickly Aegon was willing to throw away any original plans is concerning. It went from "I'll marry Dany" to "I'll beat her there"

Do you think Tywin would have kept him around if he had even an inkling that Tyrion was not his? I know he bore a great love for the Lady Joanna, but that only takes you so far. Joanna died in child bed while birthing Tyrion, and Tyrion turned out to be a dwarf. For that alone Tywin admitted he wanted to kill him, but didn't for the love he bore Joanna. I think it would have been much different if Tywin thought it was not his child. He is too upset about being laughed at to let that happen you know? What are your thoughts to this?

Plus, giving Tyrion and Sansas son Casterly Rock would bring him another step closer to securing the North. Sansa having the "strongest claim" means that if they had two children, one could potentially rule the West, and one could rule in the North. Power play.

I'm not sure if I would call Tywin "mad". Certainly cold and calculating and cruel, but not mad. I think the fact that people used to laugh and jest at his fathers expense just made him more determined to make it so nobody ever laughed at House Lannister ever again. I think he would agree to Tyrions son taking Casterly Rock as long as he wasn't a dwarf like Tyrion.

Anything said by Genna Lannister lol “Terms require trust. The Freys murdered guests beneath their roof, and you, well … I mean no offense, my love, but you did kill a certain king you had sworn to protect.” "I know my place....unlike your sister"

I would love to learn more about House Reed as well! Howland Reed played a part in a very momentous occasion and as far as we know is the only one who was with Ned Stark at the Tower of Joy where Lyanna died. When is he going to climb out of the woodwork?

Before or after it was bitten in half by a she bear?:)

Also on the topic of Arya, I would like to see more with her "wolf dreams". She is the one who, whilst warging into Nymeria, found her mothers body and dragged it out for the BwB to find and reanimate. Will this ever be revisited? I hope so. Somehow.

So, remember when Arya was acting as Lord Boltons cup bearer at Harrenhal? The little Frey boy that was acting as a squire? I would love for him to realize that his "princess" was actually Arya. Such a small thing and makes no matter to the plot. Just makes me chuckle.

And if Renly could sweep Margery into the mix, it puts him in a position of power right alongside the Tyrells
